I am looking for help identifying a model on this rifle that was brought in to me. It has a 20-1/2" barrel, it is a smooth barrel down to where the forearm starts and then it is octagon up to the reciever. The caliper reads .311 inches at the bore. The top of the barrel reads:
J. STEVENS A. & T. CO.
CHICOPEE FALLS MASS U.S.A. PAT APR.1794
It is a rolling block type of action.
Can anybody help me with this? Need any more info?
Thanks,
Steve
